Grading and Reporting
At the January 17, 2017 Professional Study Day, we reviewed procedures for grading and reporting as well as as examined units in the K-5 Library Media Curriculum in order to determine the body of evidence (graded and non-graded work) as well as determined what formative assessments (non-graded) could be added in order to be a reflective, responsive educator.
